In: RITL, New Series, XLIV, No. 1-4, January-December 2007, p. 149-158Titlul: PROLETCULTISMUL (I)Title: THE PROLETCULTISM (I)Pages: 149-158Language: RomanianURL: https://ritl.ro/pdf/2007/12_D_Micu.pdf Abstract: Considering the implications of ”proletcultist” (the cult of proletarian values) literature, we can notice that proletcultism has in common with the vanguard currents the programmatic request of destroying libraries, museums and universities. That is everything related to academic tradition. But, nonetheless, there is a difference between the Romanian ”proletcultism” and the Soviet one. Communism in Russia was more aesthetic-infused, being accepted non-proletarian inspiration also.

👤Author Name: Andrei Gligor 📄Article Citation Recommendation: GLIGOR, Andrei. „Critica postbelică”. In: RITL, New Series, XLIV, No. 1-4, January-December 2007, p. 143-148Titlul: CRITICA POSTBELICĂTitle: POSTWAR CRITICPages: 143-148Language: RomanianURL: https://ritl.ro/pdf/2007/11_A_Gligor.pdf Abstract: It’s not normal that important post-war critics like Nicolae Manolescu, Eugen Simion and Ov. S. Crohmălniceanu should be expelled from the curricula. They imposed the most representative contemporary writers and defended and enlarged the cultural values inherited from Maiorescu, Lovinescu and Călinescu. In fact, we can’t speak about a gap in the Romanian literary criticism. That is why the explosive emergence of a generation of V.I.P. critics, ready to give credit to commercial authors, proves to be so alarming.

Aşa se face că, încă de la primele culegeri de nuvele şi povestiri, publicate într-un context cu totul nefavorabil afirmării valorilor, autorul s-a impus printre cei mai valoroşi prozatori ai generaţiei sale. Indiferent de genul abordat ulterior, de la cronica sportivă şi cărţile pentru copii la proza confesivă, memorialistică, de la roman la dramaturgie, această literatură a a manifestat obstinat, prin însăşi „formula“ ei, o tendinţă „evazionistă”* (metaforismul, dislocarea linearităţii epice în nuclee narative proliferând, dacă se poate spune aşa, „pe verticală“), principial ostilă contaminării ideologice, cu mesaj propagandistic. În opinia noastră, unul dintre momentele de vârf ale creaţiei lui Fănuş Neagu îl reprezintă volumele de povestiri târzii Pierdut în Balcania (1982), Partida de pocher (1994) şi O corabie spre Bethleem (1997), volume care concentrează, în piese efasate cu minuţie de bijutier, trăsăturile unei formule epice inimitabile.

His word choice is rich and expressive, very much resembling that of Sadoveanu’s. In the same time, the vernacular realism is combined with an ancestral wisdom and this is the secret of an incomparable art of story-telling. Bibliography: Simion, E. Scriitori români de azi.

The resulting image is undoubtedly truthful and it renders in its entirety the evolving ”scale of values“ of Romanian literature, including the literature of the last half a century, a period supposed to have been affected by the distortions operated by the political climate. The maintenance of the necessary balance is an undeniable fact, despite some interventions” of the last two decades, which aimed to be the seismograph of the intrusions of social command; in other words, of the communist propaganda in matters of literary art and its main themes. The only element remaining under question refers to a certain attitude, to the ”official character of the enterprise of those who approached literary history, which disregarded the immanence of the ideological factor (”the Party is everything“), implying,…

Concerned with the analysis of the literary phenomena from that period, he even set on putting together an extensive study in two volumes, having as subject the modernist novel. Despite the fact that he did not accomplish his project, a large part of his critical opinions and of his theoretical reflections-mostly involving the narrative constructions from ”In search of lost time“ —, can constitute an important Romanian contribution to a poetics of the proustian novel.

👤Author Name: Dumitru Micu 📄Article Citation Recommendation: MICU, Dumitru. „Eliade și Sebastian”.

While Eliade considers that Sebastian, who died in 1945 in a tragic car accident, would have become a great literary critic, Sebastian comments upon Eliade’s prose, especially Domnisoara Christina and Maitreyi, as the most important Romanian literary achievements in the field of fantastic genre since Eminescu’s Sarmanul Dionis.
